Crochet homies about to be rich
"Wow another 253 orders for more ***socks! This is such great news for me and my 7 dogs"
Have we not been baptized by cheap ***socks our entire existence?
What the fuck is happening?
Is this what end-stage capitalism looks like?
Yes, this is actually the first time a luxury good that's a bit silly has ever been sold.
Historic moment here and definitely not the norm.
Not by a long shot.
But this is a major company and it's got a lot of cultists who will buy it.
Also, $250 for a sock is a pretty notable example of end-stage capitalism and worth pointing out.
Nah, that was $1000 stick.
No matter. Apple fans will do as their told and soon be lining up at the Apple stores, wallet in hand.
And next year they'll wait in line for iSock 2 Pro that's double the price.
So if I buy a bulk pack of knee high hanes and cut some holes in it, you think I can slap some old apple stickers on the side and sell them to apple people?
It's just a question.
As it should be.
As it should be.
Think different
Thneed?
While I doubt this is very world shattering news, it is technically news.
It's a silly product.
"It feels like Apple is testing the limits of brand loyalty."
Brand loyalty is not a concept that should exist. Stop it.
Oh wow this thing is real? I saw a post about this the other day and assumed it was a shit post. Damn they're not even trying anymore.
